MIRIAM'S POV It was just past dinner time. Jason and I were in the sitting room watching television cuddled up close. Jason, my dear husband happens to be the sweetest person alive and we have been married for over thirteen years now. Can you believe it? How time flies. A marriage blessed with two adorable kids. One at ten and the other seven. I have been having the best time being a married woman. Thirteen years ago, it was really funny how I had been found by him after being abandoned by my ex boyfriend. But now, I could say that proudly I could look back in the years and acknowledge that I have had the best time in life. Tonight, we decided to watch some good old high school romance in each other's arms while the kids were asleep upstairs. I could feel the tension between us both and our emotions rising as my husband who held me in his arms had his fingers tracing short lines over and over on my arm. His eyes were on the TV but I could swear that his thoughts were with me. We ha
MIRIAM'S POV Eli smiled the moment I asked him to come inside and I heard the low growl behind me. That was Jason getting pissed but somehow, he managed to restrain himself as I was right there in the scene. He certainly could not attempt to attack Eli. "Long time no see Jason." Eli said as he started taking off his leather jacket. Every inch of his clothes and hair was covered in mud. I could also tell from his eyes that he was somewhat exhausted. I still had no idea if I had done the right thing by letting him into our house but there was something I knew better, the truth as it should be would not be heard from one party alone. Both parties had a lot of talking to do. I loved my husband so much and he too had said that I was his mate and he knew the moment I saw him. I looked Eli over and then turned to Jason. "Darling, just be calm please. It's just for tonight and there's a lot of things I don't understand." I said "What you do not understand, Miriam , is that you let a liar
MIRIAM'S POV "Um alright guys, break it off." I said when they had suddenly started glaring at each other with their wolves eyes. The combo of red locking with blue was really something but I knew if not taken care of, that something was going to give rise into more. There was no telling with the both of them. Even as I called for them to stop glaring at each other, neither was paying me any atom of attention as they seemed so engrossed with hating each other. "Jason?" No response "Eli?" I called and he turned to look at me with a smile. The very same smile he had on his face back in the days. "I'm hungry Mimi." he said, calling me by my pet name I could not recall actually when last I had been referred to by it. It was shocking to me as I realized that save for a couple pet names, Jason still had no nickname for me. No, I was beginning to feel silly and seriously needed to snap out of it. I handed him the other sandwich which he ate rather quickly. Jason was pissed and left the
MIRIAM'S POV We eventually left the place after he had tried explaining things to me on how he was certain he was my mate. I know I come from a pretty weird family but could my life and family get any weirder? I actually agreed to follow him home and surprisingly he already knew the way to my house and I accredited that to the fact that he did say after all that he had been monitoring me longer than I could ever imagine. It had been a few weeks actually because when we got closer, he told me everything and for how long. Well he left me in front of my house but then came down as mother stood there in front of the porch. "You finally found your bride now haven't you?" she asked "Ma'am please let me take your permission to woo your daughter." he had said like the most gentleman in the world. I was totally floored especially when my mother agreed to his wooing me. Well I did give Eli a tough time but he made mine even more tougher at school as he started showing up around me and had s
MIRIAM'S POV I could say nothing to anyone for a long time and the only person there to comfort me was the handsome stranger that found me in the forest. You could imagine how shattered I was to keep living in the house which used to be lively with the sound of my family members. It was torment for me and at a point I became suicidal as I had begun blaming myself for all my woes. It was my fault they had died as had I not gotten entangled with someone like Eli, stuff like that would not have happened. I attempted suicide twice and was nearly successful with one had Jason not interrupted. He was there to wrap my slitted wrist with a cloth and took me to the hospital. When the doctors had spoken that it was too deep, he had snuck into my ward and poured some of his werewolf blood over my wrist. It did not heal all through but lessened the damage that I had done to myself. That actually was how I discovered that I was yet entangled with another werewolf. I wanted him gone but then he ne
"Who are you calling a murderer?" Jason demanded with so much anger in his eyes as he rose up abruptly.I was already prepared to step up."You buddy. How about you tell her about that night?" Eli asked him"What night? What is he talking about Jason?" I asked my husband"Nothing, he's full of lies Miriam. Let's send him away." Jason said"Or we could both tell our sides of the story." Eli said"There is no story to tell." Jason yelled"Oh but there is and I have a lot to say for that night fifteen years ago." Eli said"You're delusional." Jason said to him"Am I?" Eli demanded"Enough both of you. We are going to take these things out without waking the kids or alerting the neighbors who by the way if you have forgotten are all humans." I said, reminding them when I noticed the change in their eye colors.It took some time but then they both calmed down or rather pretended to calm down as they returned to their seats. I was glad I was beginning to get a hang of the situation but if I
"He's a liar, Miriam. This is why I insisted on letting him go." Jason suddenly screamed.It was clear something was amiss. In all my time with Jason, he has never done anything that would make me suspect him of anything like this as he happened to be the most calm person ever. At this point I had no idea what I should believe anymore but I needed to hear at least Jason's side of the story. That should be enough to make me decide but if I was being honest, right now I feared that a lot of things about me might be a lie. I calmed myself down and then turned to stare at Jason."J you said you found the necklace at the cliff right?" I asked him"You don't believe me?" he asked me suddenly squinting his eyes"Wait, the necklace of us both which he stole from my neck before wrapping that damned plant around my neck?" Eli suddenly asked me"Enough Eli!!! I'm talking to my husband right now." I screamed at Eli suddenly and honestly I felt bad about doing that. I knew I had hurt his feelings
JASON'S POVA banshee? This is impossible.I could not believe that this was the case right now. I had been living with my family's impending doom all these years and even dared to have children with her. I recalled how I had made certain to find out that she had no powers before pulling off the attack on their family. Yes, Eli just might have stated everything as truthfully as possible but seriously, what did I care about it?Years back, we had been working against the other pack of wolves and rounding them off as my family sought just one thing and that was dominance. I mean, we wolves were not wolves for nothing as it was clear what our supremacy was. To think that our kind hid in the shadows and in fear of the human race was simply something I could not understand. It did not make sense. How would one hold so much power and still be afraid to show it off.I had been tutored by my father himself and it had been his goal all these years but apparently, he did not have the strength
